Is Divorce Contagious?

According to an article I recently read there is a 70 percent chance you marriage will fail if you friends are splitting. The article cites statistics where, if your friends or families marriages are falling apart, the transferring trauma could affect your marriage.

The article states that research has shown that divorce can spread families, work places, and friends. Researchers call is ‘divorce clustering’. It’s believed that break-ups within groups of friends cause couples to question their own marriages. Oddly enough, the article says that this can even go as far as friends of friends or coworkers. Furthermore, it’s also suggested that knowing many divorces people can be bad for a marriage and while it was previously suggested that children might help save a marriage, it was found to not reduce the risk of divorce.
